What are transition services, and when and why are they included in the IEP?
What will be an ideal response?
By the time a student with a disability is sixteen years old, the team writing the IEP must address transition, specifying measurable postsecondary goals based on transition assessments for training, education, employment, and other relevant areas. Transition services on the IEP could include career exploration; participation in a vocational preparation program; training in life skills, such as keeping a budget and writing checks; experience in a work setting; or any other service or activity related to the student's postschool plans. Transition plans are included in the IEP in recognition that students with disabilities often need ongoing support after secondary school (a smooth transition of services), and that academic achievements are not the only important measure of progress and preparation.
